I am currently putting together a short film. It's about an amateur private detective who gets himself involved in a kidnapping case and trouble soon follows. It is called: Derek Douglas and the Deadly Deception, and is a dark-comedy/thriller which will be around 30 minutes long, and I aim to have it completed (edited/graded/sound mix) by the end of October.

The reason I am bugging you all is because to make this film I need a little bit of money. The budget we're aiming for is $4500 and that is to hire equipment, props and locations.

I know the target seems like a lot of money,but once you convert it to pounds,and IndieGoGo (more on them in a second) take their share, we're left with about £2900.

The film is currently looking for funding here at http://www.indiegogo.com/ddatdd Indie GoGo is a crowd sourcing site where people post projects that need funding (like mine!) and kind people (like you!) donate a little cash. And for that cash we give you stuff in return. That stuff includes: DVD's, comic books (Illustrated by Dan Saunders), soundtrack, props from the film. The list goes on.

We've already reached $75 in one night (which is more than I was expecting in such a short space of time) Anyway I'll shut up now and leave you alone, but please donate as much as you can, and make me happy.
